There's this weird thing happening and I'm really frustrated because I can't tell whether I'm experiencing some weird bug or people are just simply not getting what I'm saying. I'm not getting any answers so I'm starting to think maybe it's a bug.

With the old app store it was able to view SUB CATEGORIES in Games. So for example under the game category you can filter your browsing by WHAT TYPE OF GAMES you're looking for: Adventure, Puzzle, Simulation, Strategy, Card...etc. After upgrading to Mojave; however, the app store no longer has these sub categories.

YES I CAN SEE THERE ARE CATEGORIES but there are no sub categories like the ones I mentioned above anymore. I just find it hard to believe Apple would do this because that means there's absolutely no where to filter searches other than to fully depend on Editor's choices of games or featured content. That's really stupid.

I just need someone to confirm whether this is a bug or it's really how this is set up now.
 
They never bothered implementing Boolean searches, or even locking playlists in iTunes.
We consumers are not supposed to hassle our pretty little brains over stuff like that.
You'll just have to become a phenomenally good guesser of just the right keyword to find the game you want.

In this case it's not about guessing at all. I can't see ANYTHING new. Most of the games and apps showing up are old. I can't see what's new unless it is "featured". On my iPad I was able to see the game subcategories but on the computer I can't. It only shows me the entire collection of categories without subcategories :/ It's really annoying.
